Haha no i completely misread the part where you said he wasnt horrible. Was drinking last night my fault 
He was not the guy to replace TM7. He was behind Simon at that big bookend type CB spot. Never was going to be guy to replace TM.
I agree we are extremely deep at CB. But, I really think Collins and Mills are the 2 starters this year. Collins might go pro. Then, you would have Mills and White and RR as the top 3.
Chavis has been grooming Collins for this year and ill be shocked if a true freshman comes in and takes his spot.
You do realize that there are a lot of top recruits that end up doing nothing?? Not saying White is gonna do nothing. But, let the kid get some SEC PT before we peg him as all world.

Good point on the bigger boundary corner thing, but at the end of the day, you'll want your best guys out there.
Collins and Mills will have to match up better against a big and average size receiver tandem than Mills and White. Given that Mills isn't small, Mills and White may be a better package.
Robinson has more length then all of them. Of course, let's see what kind of summer he's had in the weight room and how quickly he picks things up.
The thing about Collins is if he doesn't start, the nickel role is no guarantee. That nickel back plays inside and as a bigger corner, covering a slot receiver wasn't the most natural thing for him. If, say, White starts, Collins could come in as a nickel in much the same way Simon did in 2011: Mathieu would start on the outside, then move inside in the nickel package and Simon would come in and play on the outside. If White starts, he could slide inside in nickel coverage and Collins could come in and play on the boundary.
